5. energy derived from wind and wave power is sometimes described as another form of solar energy. justify this statement.
6. Determine the temperature change in a calorimeter when 5.00g of CaCl2.6H2O dissolves in 200ml of water according to the equation
H2O
CaCl2.6H2O(s)----->Ca^2+(aq) + 2Cl^-(aq) Delta(triangle thingy) H= +18.0 kJmol^-
The calibration factor for the calorimeter under these conditions was found to be 825 J C^-1
answer: 0.498 C
